Design 2: IPv6 Addressing with NDRA and DHCPv6 Prefix Delegation

This design (Figure 1) uses NDRA and DHCPv6 prefix delegation in your subscriber access network as follows:

  • NDRA addressing is used to provision a global IPv6 address on the WAN link. IPv6 prefixes for NDRA come from a local pool or AAA RADIUS.
  • DHCPv6 prefix delegation is used for host device addressing. The delegated prefix can come from a local pool or from AAA RADIUS. The CPE uses the delegated prefix for subscriber addressing. The CPE can use NDRA or DHCPv6 to allocate IPv6 addresses on the LAN.

If you have a network with a combination of subscriber LANs and single PCs, you can use a combination of design 2 and design 3.
